It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Kiev and Kharkov have better public transport than almost all American cities (maybe except for Chicago and NYC)
Am I wrong, or is NYC transit expensive AF? Sorry I haven't been in over a decade.
Can’t comment on the price but as someone who loved the subways in South Korea, NYC subways struck me as filthy, really loud, and ridiculously late. In South Korea they show up on the dot every few minutes from like 6AM to 10PM seven days a week. (They’d be running 24/7 if not for cab drivers.) In NYC I couldn’t believe that they can sometimes be half an hour late! You’re just supposed to stand around at the fucking station for half an hour? And they were so loud I had to plug my ears.
In most parts of the US you’re lucky if there’s a bus at all, that it decides to show up on the day you want to take it, and that it comes more often than once every 4 hours
When I went recently it wasn't so bad, it's also super easy to just jump in.
